Ingredients

  • 1 Brick Smoked Tofu Or other tofu of choice
  • 2 tablespoon Sesame Seeds Plain, toasted, black, or a mix
  • ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Onion Powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400F, line a small baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
  • Using a sharp knife, slice the tofu in half, to make 2 large, flat rectangles. Blot well with a paper towel to absorb extra moisture, then slice into cubes. Gently roll the cubes onto a paper towel, then transfer to a small mixing bowl.
  • Drizzle the tofu cubes with a bit of sesame oil – maybe about 1 tablespoon – then add remaining ingredients and toss to coat. Spread coated tofu cubes out evenly on prepared baking sheet.
  • Once oven is up to temperature, bake tofu for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes or so.
    Serve hot!
